‘Check the oranges’, Indian cricketer’s fake ad stirs uproar – World

A campaign launched by a non-governmental organization (NGO) founded by former Indian Test cricketer U Raj Singh to raise awareness about breast cancer among women has become controversial due to a catch phrase.

Yuvraj Singh’s NGO UV Can has placed a cancer awareness ad in a Delhi metro train carriage. It asks women to check oranges.

U Raj Singh’s NGO is being heavily criticized for its ad with offensive words. A Delhi Metro passenger took a photo of the ad and uploaded it on social media platform X.

Check your oranges once a month, the ad says. Many on social media have termed the ad extremely embarrassing, surprising and disturbing.

This ad is generated by artificial intelligence. In the ad, a girl stands with an orange in her hand while a woman holds a crate containing oranges.
